| TEST | NORMAL VALUE* | CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE |
| Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) | 7-18 mg/dL | Increased in renal disease and dehydration; decreased in liver damage and malnutrition |
| Carbon dioxide (CO2) (includes bicarbonate) | 23-30 mmol/L | Useful to evaluate acid-base balance by measuring total carbon dioxide in the blood: Elevated in vomiting and pulmonary disease; decreased in diabetic acidosis, acute renal failure, and hyperventilation |

| Thyroid-stimulatinghormone (TSH) | 0.5-6 mlU/L | Produced by pituitary to promote thyroid gland function; elevated when thyroid gland is not functioning |
| Triiodothyronine (T3) | 120-195 mg/dL | Elevated in specific types of hyperthyroidism |
| Triglycerides | Men: 40-160 mg/dL Women: 35-135 mg/dL | An indication of ability to metabolize fats; increased triglycerides and cholesterol indicate high risk of atherosclerosis |

Saya bukannya mau promosi merek ini, cuma kebetulan saya dapat pertanyaan dari pasien saya tentang Niacin, dan gambar sediaan yang cantik adanya cuma ini 
Berhubung yang sudah terlanjur ditampilkan gambarnya Niaspan, sekalian saya expose saja biar puas.

Berita baik buat “peggemar” endoskopi (emang ada yang gemar dengan endoskopi hehehe). Ada pepatah mengatakan “tak kenal maka tak sayang”. Di dunia kedokteran ada pepatah “tak lihat maka tak yakin”… eh bo’ong kok, itu saya ngarang sendiri. Cuma maksudnya bener, bahwa memang terbaik dalam dunia kedokteran adalah melihat sendiri. Itu adalah alasan kenapa diciptakan suatu prosedur yang disebut endoskopi. Prosedur ini mengharuskan pasien menelan selang mirip mie yang panjang melalui mulutnya. Selang ini di ujungnya ada kamera, lampu, dan beberapa fungsi lainnya seperti penjepit, penghisap, dan lain-lain. Kepentingannya adalah selain melihat dengan yakin, juga memanipulasi (mengambil, meniup, menghisap, mengikat, dll) ketika diperlukan saat itu juga.

Istilah kedokteran untuk cacar air adalah Varicella; sedangkan untuk cacar monyet atau cacar api, ini adalah penyakit kulit lain yang disebut Impetigo. Impetigo ini ada 2 macam, dan sering keduanya punya nama yang berbeda pula. Impetigo krustosa yang disebut cacar madu (pada beberapa daerah), dan impetigo krustosa atau cacar api / cacar monyet. Wah banyak ternyata ya ??

Tulisan ini saya post di bawah kategori “Manfaat Rokok”. Sengaja saya buat kategori ini karena Indonesia adalah salah satu negara yang terbanyak perokoknya… lagi-lagi bukan suatu yang bisa kita banggakan. Lantas mengapa terjadi beramai-ramai di sini ? Silakan “Tanya Kenapa”…
Comments rss TrackbackPengumuman penting bagi para subscriber feed saya, mohon maaf karena masalah teknis feeder yang lama harus dihapus dan diganti dengan feed line yang baru. Tetap sama menggunakan feedburner.com, hanya feeding line nya diganti menjadi :
Saya sudah mengkonfigurasi feed yang lama agar tetap nyambung dengan yang baru, namun bila tidak berhasil mohon dengan hormat di klik manual yaaa

DM atau diabetes melitus di Indonesia lebih populer dengan sebutan “kencing manis”. Penyakit ini diam-diam sempat menduduki peringkat 5 besar penyakit kelas dunia. Ini bukanlah suatu prestasi yang layak dibanggakan lho… Jenis peyakit ini ada 2 macam, yaitu jenis yang tergantung pada insuin, disebut juga insulin dependent DM dan jenis yang tidak tergantung insulin atau disebut juga non-insulin dependent DM. Sebenarnya jenis lainnya juga ada, namun tidak saya jabarkan di sini.
Bila Anda adalah seorang penderita baru penyakit ini, mungkin Anda akan bertanya-tanya apa dan bagaimana kelanjutan terapinya, akankah menjadi sembuh total seperti sediakala, atau hidup normal kembali suatu saat. Langsung saja kita bahas di sini.
